This could be something for a HTML(5)/JS/CSS savvy person (to make it *really* convenient). I'm thinking scrollable log views, that interactively append/prepend entries to the view, depending on your position in the log file. Or commenting on log snippets and saving them for further review.
As long these are based on progressive enhancement, sounds good.
I think "no thanks to interactive convenience", unless the candidate is *really* good at Zen Garden stuff (ie, won't need to spend any time thinking about progressive enhancement, let alone learning any CSS or JS). Convenience can only be realized if logs can be read and effective queries are easy for users to generate, and the replies are easy to understand, too. Let's leave Web2.0 stuff for next summer, please.
Let me add some inconvenience: Log contains privacy related information. I'd expect a log view/research interface to limit output to what the person/role may look at and no more.
